Herein, we reports the application of various spinel ferrite nanoparticles, MFe2O4 (M = Co, Ni, Cu, Zn), as efficient catalyst for Biginelli reaction. All ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized using a novel aqueous solution based method. It was observed that, the catalytic activity of the ferrite nanoparticles followed the decreasing order of CoFe2O4 > CuFe2O4 > NiFe2O4 > ZnFe2O4.

A physical mixing method has also been employed to prepare nanocomposites having same compositions. The effects of synthetic methodologies on the microstructures of the nanocomposites as well as their magnetic and microwave absorption properties have been evaluated.
